If you’re ok with your neighbors hating you because you’re a dick who doesn’t care about disturbing the quiet of the neighborhood, then sure, get some wind chimes. If you’re a considerate human being who doesn’t want to subject others to painful noise all day, then no. This is complete and utter bullshit. If you like wind chimes, get them and hang them. I really wouldn’t give a flying fuck if my neighbors liked them or not. I don’t like screaming kids but you don’t hear people saying don’t breed because it may bother your neighbors. I hate barking dogs but you don’t hear people saying don’t have pets. I hate the roaring engine of street motorcycles but you don’t hear people saying don’t buy them. Seriously, some people are high fucking maintenance. LOL pinklady, you crack me up. I need you in my life. |

I have no idea, I have never seen one IRL, only in movies. It’s usually the creepy place visited by the detective investigating serial murder or something. Which of course leads me to ask:where can I get one?

We live on a 3 acre lot. We have a nautical sounding wind chime from LL Bean, that is a memory of a beautiful Columbus Day trip to Maine when DH and I started getting serious.
I am super sensitive to noise. Morning t.v. shows. If you turn on the tv with sound in the morning I will cut you. Leaf blowers in the fall. Kill me now.
So I am not sure why this wind chime does not bother me. I don't really notice it any more during an average day. But I did the other day when a storm blew through. I will take other Peas advice and take it down during high wind conditions.

That horrible tinny sound makes my teeth hurt. I would agree on that sort but you can get hollow bamboo chimes that have a deep, low sounds which, imo, is much more bearable. I don't mind hearing them when at my MIL's for example but I don't like it enough to get my own. It's the randomness of the sound that irritates me in the end. You tube |

Huge no from me. I’m sensitive to dissonance and it’s very rare to find any that are actually in tune PS - I hate your kids too. and I really hate your fucking barking dogs! But they don't bother you because you're never home that's why they are outside sad, lonely and barking all the time. |

I love wind chimes as long as they are the deeper sounding ones. I find them soothing.

There are some down the street and if it’s a windy day I have to walk my dog in a different direction because she’s afraid of the wind chimes. 😊 Me, I am the opposite of jeremysgirl. I hate noise. I love silence or silent enough to hear nature sounds like birds and bugs. First thing in the morning is my favorite sound. No cars, no kids, no people. |

Seriously, some people are high fucking maintenance. For a moment I felt bad that I have and love my wind chimes. They are a high quality set that sound lovely. But pinklady made it all better. I totally agree with her. |

I have wind chimes and live in a close urban neighborhood. I don’t feel bad. I’ll live with the rude, asshole characterization. In a world of petty annoyances, there are much worse ones to be found.

And that asshole who has the backyard smoker that stinks up the entire neighbourhood every weekend and makes me wonder if I should be calling the fire department! Oh wait, that's me. In my defense, I do share the ribs by way of apology. |

I'm not a fan at all. It's just another form of noise pollution.

Mine are bamboo and hung against the house for decor. I'm easily bothered by noise so wouldn't have metal ones.

There are a lot of things much, much worse than wind chimes. |
